<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>I'm not sure what you were trying to say, it came out a bit garbled. I agree that Edmonton would love to have Parayko, but not at the expence of Draisaitl. Draisaitl is too valuable a player, many teams would consider him their franchise center. Edmonton has no way to replace him - realistically - in the future.

Besides, Chiarelli has publically stated that he's looking for a really good powerplay defenseman, that's not Parayko. Parayko's skillset is similar to that of Adam Larsson and Darnell Nurse, so not a huge need on the roster.</div></div>

what i was trying to say, Edmonton is stacked at center, and hey need to convert that into wings or defesemen. They have 3 solid centers that could be most likely 1a on a decent amount of rosters if not 1b. Well parayko is young and very promising, he has probably hardest shot in the game and can be deadly if he usues it more, and his size, I wish he would hit more, he a little too nice. I love parayko and last year or any other time you asked to trade him, he would be lights off. But since we are really lacking a 1a center or 1b center, I would do the trade, since we got defense depth as of right now. Parayko is young, RHD defensemen (hard to find) plus to get a trade from a team. He is really unique so Edminton would love him and you should admire him more. He is definitely not a duml player, we love him, we have so many other players we would want gone, but we absolutely need offseadon move and get some top 6 forwards and Parayko may cost us if we do so.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BAC</b></div><div>-Schenn played RW mostly for Philly, and in StL he has only played C or RW. CapFriendly may have him listed as C/LW, but they're wrong.
-I think you're wrong that Thomas and Kyrou don't both make the opening roster. They outplayed several veterans in camp last year, and there's really no one ahead of them on the depth chart that stand much of a chance to beat them out of a spot. Barring injury, I see them both on the team ahead of guys like Fabbri or Sanford--both of whom are recovering from injuries.
-Fabbri hasn't played more than 2 minutes in the last two years. I've no doubt he'll return, but he shouldn't be penciled into the lineup until he's got his game back--which will almost certainly be in San Antonio.
-I don't think Buffalo parts with both RoR and Bogosian.
-They will definitely ask for Parayko, but we shouldn't let CP55 go for anyone not named Draisatl.
-Barring injury and special teams, 3rd line LW is the *only* place Steen should be playing. He certainly shouldn't be playing with Tarasenko and Tavares.
-Don't see Tavares signing for less than $11Mx7. My guess is he'll sign for $80M.</div></div>

You really think Thomas is more ready than kyrou? Kyrou had helluva season and had his final year in the OHL. Kyrou to me seems more ready. But Thomas will have to go AHL or OHL which would be werid since he is probably too good for it. Idk I think only both make it if we are down a top 6 forward, there wont be space. Right Fabbri might not be ready, but preseason should help a lot and being on the third line will help him alot. Right if Fabbri is not ready in opening day then I think thomas and kyrou make it. if Fabbri is ready and we are lacking a top 6 forward than I see both making it.

Either way this is lacking a top 6 forward, because Steen should not be on first line. But realistically this may hapoen knkwing Armstrong. We defiently need two top 6 forwards added and you done that, to put us ahead than we were last year, but I think another top 6 forward will put us in really great position and really solid if we add 3 top 6 forwards this offseason. Other than that this looks great and will probably work.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BluesGetTheCup</b></div><div>I've watched a lot of Thomas' games during the season, and I really like him. His skillset translates better to the NHL as he is diligent off puck and is a quality defensive center already. He's creative and fast enough to keep up offensively as well. Kyrou is a stud. But it was his 4th year in the OHL, he's small (Thomas has about 20 lbs on him), and he can get lazy. Additionally, Thomas plays a position we're desperate for now.

There's no reason for Thomas to be back in the OHL next year. Also, saying he wasn't good in the regular season is baffling. 1.5 ppg player? Performing better in the postseason after a fantastic regular season is a silly argument for not coming to the NHL.

Also, don't call me buddy. It's condescending as ****.</div></div>

Where does it say, I said thomas is not good in the regular season! Again read again buddy! Haha. I said he was not as good in the regular season as he was in the Playoffs! Kyrou is coming before thomas. They both dont make it. Maybe but very slim chance and after rkyrou having an amazing season hes ready. Thomas we just got him, he can go back to OHL or AHL which i prefer, and he will probably get pulled up in the season. Now have a nice day buddy. :).


p.s. I continued to call you buddy because, i'm going to pretend I missed what you said, just like you missed what I said about thomas. Never did I say he wasn't good in the regular season. If you read better, than I will try to read better also.
